I am glad you enjoyed this. Eubie Blake was a wonderful piano player and composer. Thankfully he lived so long to be able to introduce many generations to ragtime and his great songs like Memories of You.

Yes, definitely viva Alberta Hunter. She was around a long time like Eubie Blake and was able to make records in the 1920's and appear on Tv shows in the 1980's.

I was lucky my husband taped this off TV on his old beta machine. Don't know if you knew this or have heard it but a collector told me a guy named Tom Stewart recorded hundreds of hours of jazz live at clubs and off the radio on a wire recorder and his kids threw them all out after he died because they had no way to play them. The guys wire recorder had broken and he he threw it out years ago but he kept all the wire spools. He had live recordings of Louis, Duke, Basie no one else had.
